Wasn’t I wasted | Ali Reza Panahian

Wasn’t I wasted?

Imam Sadiq (a) said, “Disbelief has three roots: greed, arrogance, and jealousy.” Then he said that greed drove the prophet Adam (a) out from Heaven. Arrogance made Satan wretched. Jealousy tuned Cain into a murderer, and so on.
Shall I give another example? Shall I? I want to give a very bad example. Sometimes… What shall I say? Shall I not give this example at all? I’ll tell you what the example was, and then not use it. This is much better. Yes, then curiosity will bother you. I will tell you what the example was, and then I won’t use it.
A man and a woman get married. Before the marriage, the girl was wishing for a good marriage. Now that she has a good marriage, greed afflicts her. “There are more people who can pay attention to me.” They start behaving badly and arguing. According to the statistics, many divorces take place in the first, second, or third year of marriage. Most divorces.
Why? “Wasn’t I wasted?” Put your greed aside! Calm down. This (thought) enters the heart so subtly that suddenly she sees her husband’s bad traits and lacks. Suddenly she sees better options. The same things happen in a man too.
I usually don’t do counselling. But, when young couples have a problem I say, “What is it? You don’t have anything else to worry about?” It was a bad example, but this badness exists in our society. This evil (avarice) shows itself in marriage. This even drove Adam out from Heaven! They are not ideal. All of us have some problems. Satan is a swindler! Satan does this by saying, “Ms. Bride, weren’t you wasted in marrying him?” With just this, he drove Adam out from Heaven!
If the couple are not greedy, their love for each other increases daily. “My spouse is too good for me! Praise God. Praise God.” What a love and kindness grows for each other in them! Sometimes one of them becomes greedy, sometimes both of them. Sometimes this one. Sometimes that one. We can see various cases. When you get a position, greed comes with it and ruins everything. You get married, greed comes with it.
This is a tradition, “Whenever God opens a door in the world for you, He opens a desire to go with it.” This comes with it. What is it called when they give something along with a product? Greed is like this. This is human nature. Read the verse from the Quran, “Indeed, man has been created covetous.” He has been created in this way!
This (thought) enters the heart so subtly that suddenly she sees her husband’s bad traits and lacks. Suddenly she sees better options. The same things happen in a man too. Put your greed aside!
